I'm running tacacs+ plus on Freebsd to authenticate my Cisco As5200's
To avoid re-adding usersl, I am attempting to referance my existing
passwd file. The problem is that the passwd file is md5 crypt. which
tacacs+ does not support. I need a DES crypt passwd file which I
don't have.
So I have three choices:
1.Install the libdescrypt on freebsd (where can I get it? as a
binary?and how to link it (will I need to re-add my users?)
2. or convert the md5 passd file to a des passwd file. (anyone know if
there are scripts to do this ? where?)
3. Run Radius to authenticate my Cisco AS5200's (if the as5200 support
radius, Any experienced users with Radius on Freebsd?)
Any recomendations / suggstions will be greatly appreciated
Doesn't seem like deadlins are always too short? I have only 4 days
to decide which way to go.
Cheers,
